Interface Cable The SIC-1SAE uses a synchronous/asynchronous serial interface cable with DB-28 connectors for connection.

Before connecting to a port on the SIC-1SAE, confirm the line properties of the interface to select an appropriate cable from the following cable options:

V.24 (RS232) DTE cable: DB-25 (male) connector at the network end
